When your timing is off, so is your stride. When your cadence is off, you're in deep trouble as a hurdler..
I used to get so comfortable running the hurdles, I was just like a ballet dancer going out there and going through the routines..
I never really worried about those hurdles. They were just standing there, and I was always zooming past them just to get back on the ground again..
You must see yourself run the race over and over, time and time again. You must put yourself in critical positions and see how you would react in tho….
A good hurdler has to be completely familiar with everything that goes on so if something happens he can automatically make an adjustment..
